Reseña del libro "A Woman of Valor, A Woman of Strength: The Latchmin Bridgelall Story (en Inglés)"
As an author in my own right, I have come to realize that if something is not written down or recorded it is lost to posterity sooner or later as those who remember the story die off one by one. Then the family loses its history and its lore and all that has gone before is virtually lost to future generations.

I wanted to rescue them and keep them alive for another day and another time so that those who come after us can remember and recollect the glorious and wonderful history that has gone before. It was the great Spanish philosopher and novelist, George Santayana, who said, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to
